Here are the best card, paper and stationery stores in Toronto.
3 - The Paper PlaceThe largest selection of Japanese paper in Toronto is available at this West Queen West shop. Be engulfed by a rainbow of colours and patterns upon entry, and gawk at all the crepe paper, prints, washi tape and more here. Also a great place to pick up a cool calendar for the new year.
11 - Laywine's
This uppercrust boutique on Belair isn't messing around when it comes to fine pens and paper. With the ritziest fountain pens, most gorgeous shades of ink, and luxurious binders, planners and notebooks, this is where pro calligraphers and extensive note-takers get their supplies.

Quirky is the name of the game at this Kensington Market shop. Expect adult colouring books, large prints, DIY kits, and eccentric notebooks. They also do all sorts of custom work, including stamp making.

Off the wall and slightly naughty cards are the go-to here, and this Bloordale shop also has other little nifty design items like cute mugs and dishes in case you forgot about the gift that’s supposed to go with the card. Fun paper in the quirkiest prints is also in stock.
